I just thought i'd start this thread so I could say let's drop OMac, Kent, Newton etc, etc, etc.

Nev Jetta, I don't know where we'd be without you. The only player who doesn't get intoxicated on their own bathwater after a win (over sides that are even worse than us).

I've said it before and I'll say it again, we play DUMB football sometimes. There was one point when Tmac marked on the back flank. Garland was well clear and calling for it on the wing. Tmac decides to switch to the opposite flank. Bad idea, bad kick, kicks inaccurately to a one on two. Contest, port win it and a Port goal. This was in the second quarter when we were fighting late in the quarter to get back. JUST DUMB!!!!! Momentum gone. Balloon pricked by stupidity! ARGHHHHH!

ATma ofters ignores obvious safe choice 4 a risky switch play across half back 2 a contest they rebound & goal not smart footy we have a lot of dumb footballers in our team maybe some like Tmac  r a little 2 arrogant 4 their own good

O Macdonald out Dunn in. We are playing the hawks. At least Dunn is experienced. They will tear Oscar apart. Dawes has to come back to give us another target up the ground and help Gawn in the ruck. Bring in Trenners for Kennedy or Kent.

Garland could have a cracked cheekbone  according to roos. So can you get reported for accidently throwing your elbow back and doing that damage? 

Roos: I've got to take responsibility for not making more changes for this week. We spoke about it at match committee

Sounds like he may think that decision this week and may make a few.

I hope the selectors start this week with a clean sheet of paper and look long and hard at the players to ensure we are picking a team we think will win rather than picking a team we hope might win.

I would drop 7 on their play and form today and Viney might get a week on top of that for,being stupid.

OMac and Garland out of the backs with Wagner in line fora drop as well. Replace them with Dunn, Frost and Grimes. They coUtd not be any worse. 

Oliver, Vdb and Trengove to come into the midfield in place of Kennedy, Bugg and ANB.

get Dawes or Pedersen in in place of Kent.

Wake half the team and see if they can be bothered turning up.

In mix for Outs: Newton, ANB, maybe Kent and OMac (not sure we have a better option than him though), Garland (concussion?)

In mix for Ins: Trenners, Frost (back), Dawes/Pedo (forward) and Oliver

Require a jolly good flogging: Tyson, Garlett, Kennedy and Hogan's set shot.

Updates please?: Lumumble, Salem, AvB

OMFG  we are a developing team ..  saw a post elsewhere about our young/inexperienced list being a convenient "Ëxcuse" for our performance 

For me its more like the "Reason"

We will learn from this and realistically be in contention by 2018 as befits our current progress

Still hard to listen to though :mad:

In line to be dropped: Harmes, Kent, OMac, ANB, Newton, Kennedy (if injured), Tyson (if ill).

Too hard to say who will come in until Casey plays but we need a second tall (Pedersen/Dawes), we need to replace OMac who is simply not ready for AFL football right now. Oliver comes back if he's fit, and maybe Grimes or Trengove get their chance.

I thought Kent was alright. OMac definitely isn't up to it at the moment. We've missed Lumumba, he was in his best form for us before this prolonged concussion. Dunn is the absolute must include though, for god's sake

Garland was OK. But OMac is painful to watch. It's just like watching another young Zac Dawson. Seriously, what does he bring?

Dunn in for Omac.

Thought Wagner made some bad choices although he had reasonable numbers. Harry O in if fit.

I thought Watts was really good - medium numbers at high efficiency. But we need a proper second tall forward/2nd ruck (Watts to be the Gunston role).

Dawes or Pedo required back in ASAP. Maybe Newton out for that one.

Out OMac, Wagner, Newton.

In Dunn Dawes and Harry O.

Does it matter who is in or out?  Play any 22 fit players. This is the classic deck chairs shuffling match.  There is not the mental hardness  and resolve to overcome teams that habitually  kick the proverbial sand in our face. If we win it will be a greater aberration than last years win over Geelong.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
